Yes, but it is interesting that he died when he was old enough to rule without help and there were people around who could be hungry for power... Also, if he was murdered it can explain why was Ankhesenamen so desperate that she even tried to marry a Hittite. I think she was terribly afraid for some reason.

But it isn't sure that Ankhesenamun wrote that letter, it could be Nefertiti too. But if I were to decide between Aye and Horemheb, then I would go for Horemheb. I don't know why, but I don't think Aye killed him and if so, then not alone, but with Horemheb.

Ay and Horemheb... well, I can imagine that Horemheb say: "let's kill him, then you can rule, and after your death, which can be close for you're old, I'll rule and to ensure that, I'll marry your daughter..." (would make a good screenplay). Still I can't think of Ay as a murderer.

If only we knew whether Horemheb and Mutnodjmet's marriage took place before or after Ay's death, then we could know if there was such agreement between them or not.
